3. Manufacturing Sector - Overview
Manufacturing sector is critical for development of any country and India
presently is a way behind in this sector but catching up.
Uptill now the manufacturing sector in India has been largely impacted by the
complicated tax structure, insufficient infrastructure and administration though it
has the capability and resources to achieve a lot on a global platform. India’s
manufacturing sector has been almost sluggish for almost 20 years and has only
contributed merely 16% to the GDP.
Foreign Direct Investments which would result with the GST implementation can
revive India’s manufacturing sector by simplifying the tax structure and
administration and by also ensuring seamless flow of credit.

How to check whether purchases are with in daily exemption limit?
There is small exemption of Rs.5000 per day given for such purchases
however we need to arrive at this amount considering the time of supply
under reverse charge for goods and services.
Suppose, we want to check the amount for say 21st July, then we need to
do the following:
• List of goods received on 21st July (As per GRN)
• List of payments made on 21st July for either goods or services
• All supplies of goods/ services where payments are not made with in
30/ 60 days from the date of invoice and such period has ended on
20th July
Based on above, we need to see the daily limit and if it exceeds, then
reverse charge to be discharged on total amount.
